Michael M Posted February 5, 2023 Author Share Posted February 5, 2023 Now the remainder of the 'junk' have to add some PE to it and it'll be time to paint ALL of it..... Slowly but surely we're getting closer to the shore Cheers Mick 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's an awful lot of it, it should keep you going for a 1/2 hour or so. 😁 They all look beautifully formed and detailed.
